not bad at all

I liked the way the story played out-to me most of the actors were convincing in their portrayals of their characters.It didn't bog us down with lengthly background details.I found irony in MS.DeMornay's character's occupation and her character's real life experiences.I see no need to trash her acting ability as some do she's a fine solid actress-not bad looking either.I found it entertaining with a certain scene sequence unmatched in my opinion-see for yourself.You have to pay attention and not just look at pictures-but to each their own.
